Grow Gregor in Onco a Week.WAYLAID."Chip, you'd better start at once.Don't be on the road after dark with somuch money about you."The window was high from the ground,and the disreputable looking tramp whohad entered the garden heard Mr. Stockwell's remark and camo to a stop on thograveled walk.Neither Mr. Stockwell nor his trustedclerk, Chip Ferris, saw him as he halfcrouched beneath the open window, fromwhich place their tones were plainlyaudible.Mr. Stockwell had the largest groceryIn Lebanon, and Chip Ferris, though only17 years old, was his right hand man.He owned another grocery in Milldale,a thriving little village eight miles away,and Chip had just been directed by himto go over and collect the month's receipts from the man in charge."Tell Hanley I'll be in Milldale to seebim just as soon as I can get out of thehouse," said Mr. Stockwell, who had beenovercome by his old remedy, the rheumatism. 'Tve instructed him in the noteto turn over the collections to you, andif any stock is needed he can let youknow."The man at the window did not waitto hear more, but went noiselessly to thegate, all thought of begging removedfrom hki mind.A companion, as ragged and viciouslooking as himself, stood waiting forhim some distance down the street."What kept you so long?" he growled."Any luck?'"I should say so," was the response."You didn't get any money, did your"."No, but we'll soon have plenty if womanage things right."And he proceeded to confide what hehad overheard.whereat tho other worthy'seyes glistened."Well, that is luck, and no mistake,"he said. "If he's only a boy it will be aseasy as rolling off a log. There he comesnow."At that moment Chip Ferris was closing Mr. Stockwell's gate.He walked down the street in tho direction of the two men, giving them nomore than a casual glance as he passedby, for tramps were no rarity in Lebanon."Those fellows are pretty rough looking customers," he thought. "It's a wonder the constable hasn't got them."It was 3 o'clock then, and he went tothe stable in the rear of the shop andharnessed the horse to a light vehicle.The drive to Milldale was a pleasantone, and-Chip enjoyed tho prospect of itexceedingly.About a mile from town, resting under a leafy tree by the roadside, werethe two tramps he had seen some timebefore."Hello!" he said to himself. "Thereare those fellows again. I wonder whatthey're up to now."He passed by in a cloud of dust, and,looking back, saw that an animated conversation had suddenly sprung up between the two.Somehow Chip got it into his head thatthey werO talking about him."They can't know about the money,of course," he said, uneasily. "Suchmen look evil enough to do anything."When he reached Milldale he was disappointed to learn that Mr. Hanley hadgone into the country to look at a coltthat he thought of purchasing.The money was locked up in the safeand he had the key with him, so thatthere was nothing for Chip to do but towait for his return, which he did with agood deal of impatience.It was nearly 0 o'clock and the sunwas far down in the west when Mr.Hanley came back, and Chip lost notime in transacting with him the business on which he had come."Better stay with me to supper, Chip,"said Mr. Hanley. "There'll be a moonat 8 to light you back.""No, thank yon," said Chip. "I don'twant to bo out late with this money.I'll just take some bread and cheesa withme."He bade Mr. Hanley good-by, and,giving his horse tho reins, was soongoing at a smart pace through Milldale,until the last of the straggling houses atits outskirts was left far behind.The sun sank behind the distant bluehills and twilight came on."It won't be long now before it's dark,"said Chip. "I hope I won't meet thosetramps igain. They'd stop me in a minute if they thought I had so much moneyabout me."As the light faded he grew more nervous, and, with an idea in his head, hereined in the horse to carry it out, firstlooking around to satisfy himself thatno one was in sightIn his pocket was a copy of the villagepaper, which he carefully tore into stripsthe size of bank notes.He selected from the roll of notes Mr.Hanley had given him four of the leastvaluable and wrapped them around thostrips, placing them in his pocketbook.Tho money he hid in one of his shoes."Perhaps Fm over cautious," he toldhimself, with a smile. "Those menhave likely enough taken another road,but if they should try to rob me this bogus roll may fool them."He was half way home when he cameWhen Baby was sk, we gave her Castoria,When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria,When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria,Whta sht had Children, sha gare them Castoria,Wichita Wholesale &The houses given below are representative ones in their line, and thoroughly reliable.

Topeka, Wichita. Correspondence Soliciteda ttto a large tract of wooas, through whichtho road passed for some distance.The thick foliage of the over archingtreos shut out the light, and the roadwas so bad that Chip was obliged to letthe horse walk.There was an absurd story which hadlong been current of a headless horseman who appeared in these very woods,and Chip could not help recalling it witha shudder in spite of its utter improbability. Suddenly the horso shied, and thestartled boy caught sight of two darkfigures lying in wait at the side of thoroad.The horse gave a leap forward, but ahand seized the bridle and swerved thoanimal to one side, so that the vehiclewas nearly overturned in the deep rut."No, you don't, youngster," a gruffvoice said. "Just you give up thatmoney you got at Milldale or it will gohard with you.""How do you know I got any money?"asked Chip, with a fast beating heart,for he Baw the gleam of a revolver thatwas in the man's hand."None of that," replied the rascal angrily. "You just give it up, that's all.If you don't you'll never drive this wagonagain."Chip took his pocketbook out withtrembling 6ngers, and the man greedilysnatched it from him."You'll let mo ganow, won't you?" theboy pleaded."Not much," said the robber coolly."Get out of that vehicle, and don't wasteany time about it. Do you hear me?"With shaking limbs Chip obeyed andsubmitted to a thorough search of hispockets, after which he was bound, withhis arms behind him, to a tree."There, I fancy that'll do," said theman, with a chuckle. "Turn the vehicle round, Bill, and let's be off."."Are you sure you've got all?" his companion asked."Yes," was the reply. "If we hadn'tused up all tho matches trying to get alight for our pipes Td count what was inthe pocketbook."The two rogues jumped into the vehicle and drove off in the direction of Milldale, leaving Chip straining and tuggingat the rope that bound him.His fear that the robbers would returnwhen they discovered the deception thathad been practiced upon them made himalmost frantic, but ailhis efforts to freehimself were in vain.Helpless and exhausted he awaited theoutcome, turning pale at every noise thatheheard in the woods.He was as brave as any ordinary boy,but beads of perspiration were on hisbrow aud his hair almost stood up on jend when at length he heard the ominonsound of wheels drawing near."Good gracious!" he said in. terror."It's they; and they'll kill me."Wichita, Kansas.FLOUR DEPOT,CElsenmayer r.

"Help,help!""Who is it?' a startled voice calledback. "What are you doing there?""It's I Chipman Ferris," said the boy."Two men, who tried to rob me, havetied me to a tree."Ho heard some one alight, and thenext moment footsteps came crashing toward him.Chip was overjoyed to recognize Mr.Bolton, a farmer well known to him."How did you come to get in such afix, Chip?' he asked, as with a few cutsof his knife he released him from his uncomfortable position.Chip explained to Mr. Bolton how hohad been waylaid, and the farmer saidindignantly:"The villains! They must havo takenthe road to Maiden, for I didn't passthem."Just as they were getting into the farmer's vehicle they heard the sound ofangry voices from behind."Quick, Mr. Bolton!" cried Chip, excitedly. "They are armed, and they arecoming back."Tho farmer needed no urging, butgave his horse the whip.As they flew on they still heard thedesperate men venting their rage inangry threats, and they knew they werein hot pursuit.They emerged into the open, and looking back in the light of the moon thathad risen, Chip could see the men asthey beat their jaded horse in their effort to overtake them.The rascals shouted one for them toatop, and discharged their revolvers tointimidate them, but Mr. Bolton's horsowas the fresher of the two, and theysoon gave up the chase.Chip was glad when he saw at lengththe lights cf Lebanon shining out fromahead, and it was not long before everyone in the village knew of the attemptedrobbery.The constable and several men atonce started cue to arrest the trampsand found the horse and vehicle abandoned by the roadside, the men havingfeared capture and taken to t8 woods.But the telegraph is effcve. and thevery next day tne robbers were arrestedin another county and got the pIsment thev so richly deserved.

Like moy of herwhite sisters the beautiful Indian princessbestowed her lore unasked aod nnwel--omed.The object of her heart and sonlwas a white medicine man, a doctor wholived with his wife and family ia a neighboring village, and who had been summoned by Spotted Tall to attend his daughter, who was stricken with that hopelessmalady consumption.She would follow the doctor from hertepee to his hoaae, and from his house toany place he might go. She refused to believe that he was beyond her reach, andlike a faithful dog she was at Lis heelsupon every opportunity. Expostulationsand remonstrances from her friends andthe doctor were useless. Arrest and confinement had no effect upon her, for assoon as released she would dnur herself tothe house of the white medicine man,where she would sit from nignt till morning, chantlBg weird Indian tales of loreuntil removed by fc-roe. The doctor refused to come again to the lodge of SpottedTail, and the chief was broken heartedover the conditio- of bis daughter. Thedread disease made terrible progress uponthe unhappy pirl, and one morning herdead body was found on the road leadingto the doctor's home.The death of his daughter made a wonderful chajre in Spotted Tail's character.From a good and peaceable Indian he became quarrelsome and turbulent, whichwas the direct cause that led to his de-Atc.There grew up a rivalry for supremacy tnhis tribo between himself and Great S,and it soon reached that point where eachthreatened to shoot the other on sight.The two chief tains met one day, and GreatElk being the quicker at the two, SpottedTail's spirii took its flight to tie happyhunting grounds.The famous trial of Great Elk is fami-rFARNUM.-SPRAT TEAST.A new process dry compressed yeastcake.

The snow became deeperdaily, and to advaaco waa bat addingdangers to difcnlties. About one-thiriof tho men were already mora or leaffrost bitten; every night some of tnamules would freeze to death, and everyday as many more would give out fromexhaustion and ta left on the trail. Itseemed like fighting fato to attempt toproceed, but wa were bent on our course,and continued to advance.Atone timo men were sent ahead Ureport the prcspect, and returned statinfthat grass appeared in the distance before them; they supposed that the snowwas abating, bnt on coming up whatthey saw proved to bo the tops of bushessix feet high projecting above the snow;nor did anything appear upon which theanimals could subsist. The corn we hadpacked along for them was already consumed. Sometimes wo would attemptto move on. and the severity of thaweather would forco us back into camp.In one of these attempts, before we couldbeat our way half a mile against thetempest, our guide, Old Bill Williams,was nearly frozen; ho dropped downupon his mule in a stupor and was nearlysenseless when wo got into camp.A number of tho men camo in withtheir noses, ears, faces, fingers and footpartly frozen, and one or two of themules dropped down and froze to deathunder their packs. Poor mules! It waspitiable to see them. They would roamabout all night, generally, on account ditheir extreme weakness, following backthe path of the previous day, pawing inthe snow three or four feet deep for somosign of vegetation to keep them alive.Thoy would fall down every fifty yardunder their packs, and we would havato unpack them and lift them up, anilthat with fingers frozen and laceratedby the cold.Finally they began eating the ropesand rawhide lariats with which theywere tied until there were no more leftin camp to tie them with; then they atothe blankets which we tied over them atnight; then they camo into camp and atethe pads aud rigging off the pack saddles and ate one another's manes andtails entirely bare, even into tho flesh,and would como to us whilo sleepingand begin to cat tho blankets off us,they would eveu tumble into our fires,over tho cooking utensils. But, poorthings, little relief could wo afford them,for, although thoy buffered much, wewero in no better condition.Wonderful Memories.Of M. de Lacepcdc,n well known Frenchwriter on natural hlatory, It Ia recordedthat ho composed and corrected hi worksfrom beginning to end before w wrotethem down.
